With summer almost officially here, like most of you, I look forward to taking part in many of the activities that our region has to offer. Below are just a few of the countless summer offering that Western and Northwestern Ohio have to offer. From concerts and parades to museums and sporting events, you’re sure to find something for everybody in the family.
The 105th Fort Recovery Harvest Jubilee will be June 17 – 20. Once again, the event will include a softball tournament, hog roast, tug-of-war challenge, kid’s movie night, and much more. Several local music acts will be performing live, as well. For more information on this annual festival and a complete list of the events taking place on each day, visit http://www.fortrecovery.org/jubilee.htm.
The Centennial Terrace in Sylvania is hosting a number of concerts in the coming months, including Kenny Loggins on June 15th and Ted Nugent on July 25th. For more information on these and a full list of the concerts this summer, visit www.sylvaniarecreation.org.
A little further north, the Toledo Mud Hens offer great summer fun for everyone. Enjoy this AAA baseball team all summer as they battle teams from across the country. Spending a beautiful day at the ballpark is not just enjoyable, but can offer a family lifelong memories. These events and others like them are sure to ignite the summer excitement and help you make the most of time with family and friends!
Rewards for Camping
Ohio State Parks is now offering a new rewards program for frequent campers and cottage guests. For each dollar spent on camping at one of Ohio’s 56 state park campgrounds, reward card holders earn points toward a free night of camping. Points can also be earned through purchases at various camp stores and shelter hours rentals. Those who enroll in the rewards program by June 30 will also receive points for their camping and cottage stays in 2009. For more information about this new program, visit www.ohiostateparks.org.
